Brace for preventing symptoms of femoral acetabular impingement

A compression garment comprising:

• an anterior side of the garment;
• a posterior side of the garment;
• a waistband portion of the garment, the waistband portion extending at least partially along the anterior side and at least partially along the posterior side, the waistband portion corresponding to an upper extremity of the garment;
• a pant leg portion forming at least a portion of the anterior side of the garment and at least a portion of the posterior side of the garment, the pant leg portion adapted to fit tightly to a thigh of a wearer and to move with the thigh when the garment is worn by the wearer;
• a first tension member extending from at least a lower inner thigh position of the pant leg portion to at least an outer upper thigh position of the pant leg portion;
• and
• a second tension member extending at least partially upward along the posterior side of the garment body when the garment is worn by the wearer and terminating at or adjacent the waistband portion when the garment is worn by the wearer, wherein, when the garment is worn by the wearer, the first tension member and the second member act on the garment so that the garment as a whole resists internal rotation of the thigh of the wearer, adduction of a knee of the wearer, and flexion of a hip of the wearer to a greater degree than the garment as a whole resists external rotation of the thigh of the wearer, abduction of the knee of the wearer, and extension of the hip of the wearer.
